The not-so-highly anticipated Jake Paul vs. Ben Askren fight finally took place Saturday night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. It didn’t last long, as Paul knocked out Askren in the first round of a quick fight that wasn’t all that great.
While Paul took care of business against the former UFC/MMA star, the biggest star of the night ended up being Pete Davidson. The comedian and SNL cast member had a number of hilarious moments on the Triller Fight Club PPV.
His best moment came before the fight when he hilariously roasted both Paul and Askren while walking people through Paul’s locker room.

Ben Askren asks Pete Davidson why he doesn’t like Jake Paul:
“Well I mean, do you have an hour? I mean, he’s not a good person. He’s clearly not a good influence on any of the youth culture… didn’t he get busted by the feds… why isn’t he in jail?"https://t.co/FPoIqFnkax

He said this as Paul made his way to the ring:
"…and we're all about to get dumber."
